1. Introduction and General Information
1.4. Preliminary inspection
All Franklin Electric pressure pumps and their components are manufactured under strict
quality controls including electrical and seal testing at the factory. Therefore, they are
delivered in working condition after the corresponding electrical and hydraulic connections
have been made and the supplies have been enabled. However, you must check that the
pressure pump received complies with the specifications requested and if not, inform
Franklin Electric immediately, otherwise Franklin Electric will not be held responsible for
any problems with or derived from the equipment.
Upon receipt of the equipment, the following must be checked:
a) Check that the equipment has not suffered any damage during transport and handling and that there
is no damage to any of the components.
b) Check the model received and that all accessories and optional items ordered have been received in
the correct quantities, as well as the specific user manuals for each of the items supplied.
c) Check on the information plate of the booster, pumps, electrical panel and VFD, if applicable, that the
power supply voltage indicated is the one requested.
d) Check on the information plate of the pumps that the values for the pump head, flow rate and rotational
speed are suitable for the installation. Also check that the total power of the booster is lower than that
available in the installation.
1.5. Handling and installation
The personnel responsible for installation, start-up and maintenance of the equipment
must be duly qualified for this type of work and must use personal protective equipment
(PPE) appropriate to the working conditions. The correct use of PPE reduces health risks.
Responsibility, competence and supervision of personnel should be assumed by the
equipment owner.
Franklin Electric offers training courses to provide installation teams and distributors with sufficient knowledge
for the correct installation, handling and maintenance of pressure pumps.
